Answer:
Hii,
Explanation:
- A pyramid of biomass shows the biomass at each trophic level , rather than the population. A pyramid of biomass. The biomass goes down from one trophic level to the next, just like the amount of energy, so the bars always get narrower towards the top.
- There are two main types of biomass pyramid – inverted pyramid of biomass and the upright one. A good example of the inverted pyramid is in a pond ecosystem where the mass of phytoplankton, the major producers, will always be lower than the mass of the heterotrophs like fish and insects.
- Pyramids of biomass can be used to represent the amount of biomass that can be found at each trophic level in a food chain. Biomass is the total mass of the living material that is found in an organism, multiplied by the number of organisms that can be found.
- A biomass pyramid is a diagram that compares the biomass of different trophic levels within an ecosystem. It shows the mass of producers that are needed to support primary consumers, the mass of primary consumers required to support secondary consumers, and so on.
